MAN, airlines, Dangote in talks over diesel, Jet A1
Local airlines under the aegis of the Airlines Operators of Nigeria and local producers on the platform of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria have begun plans aimed at getting Dangote Petrochemical Refinery to priotise diesel and JetA1 supplies to local carriers and manufacturers.
The move came about one week after indication emerged that the Dangote refinery’s diesel and aviation fuel would hit the market by January 2024. This was after about one million litres of crude oil was supplied to the facility.
Months earlier, the Dangote refinery had hinted that refined petroleum products would from the facility be sold in the international market.
the Chairman of United Nigeria Airlines and spokesperson for AON, Prof. Obiorah Okonkwo, said local carriers had begun talks with the management of the refinery, expressing hope that the talks would be fruitful.
“We are talking with him and hope that it will be fruitful,” Okonkwo said while responding to an enquiry on whether local airlines had plans to begin talks on JetA1 supply with the Dangote refinery.
Also, MAN said its members were meeting with the aim of coming up with a position for possible presentation to the Dangote refinery management.
MAN President, Francis Meshioye, said that the association was meeting to determine whether an arrangement would be made with Dangote Refinery on the supply of diesel to its members.
